London, (WNS Palcor Agency)
Prime Minister Neville Cham-
berlain told the House of Com-
mons that if there should occur
any dispute "among those con-
cerned with the Mandate" over
Palestine as to the validity of
Great Britain's now policy, it
would be submitted for a ruling
to the International Court of Jus-
tice at The Hague.
He declared th* the' Biitish
Government is satisfied that its
new policy for Paletsine con-
forms with its treaty obligations
under the .League of Nations
Mandate, and expressed confi-
dence that the League's Perma-
nent Mandates Commission would
so find it. "If, however, any
dispute should occur among those
concerned with the Mandate, it
would be submitted to the Inter-
national Court of Justice at The
Hague," he added.
Tom Williams, Laborite, had
asked for assurance that if the
Mandates Commission should re-
port the Chamberlain White Pa-
per on Palestine inconsistent with
the Mandate over Palestine grant-
ed to Great Britain by the Lea-
gue of Nations, the House of
Commons would then be afforded
an opportunity for further dis-
cussion of the White Paper and
of the report of the Commission
before the Council of the League
is asked to consider it.
The Prime Minister answered
that he understood that in the
course of the Mandates Commis-
sion's examination of the annual
reports of the various mandated
territories it would likely take
the opportunity to discuss the
White Paper.
"If the Commission offers any
comments, th se will be embod-
ied in reports that will be sub-
mitted before the Council of the
League of Nations next Septem-
ber," he said
"Government will afford the.
information required regarding
the policy of the White Paper.
Government are satisfied their
policy is in conformity with their
treaty obligations under the Man-
date, and will explain their view
to the Council."

taurant, Miami Beach, at 7:30 p
m. Miss Ida Safer is chairman
for the evening and reservations
may be made with her.
Mrs. Irving Querido is retiring
president of the organization.
In view of the American Zion-
ist Convention to be held June
24th through 28th, it is impera-
tive that the Zionist District of
Greater Miami secure a larger
membership. True, there is no
"Social" appeal that can be made
to our co-religionists in order to
get them to join the Zionist
ranks. It is deplorable that in
these critical times organizations
in order to hold their members
intact, must direct their activi-
ties along social lines. Surely,
we have sufficient intelligence to
judge/ the merits and the potency
of worthwhile Jewish organiza-
tions without relying upon "So-
cial Stimulants" for active affil-
iation- What greater purpose for
existence can one find in any or-
ganization than that profound
ideal which is embodied in Zion-
ism, and emphasized in the very
essence of our faith "Vi-Sechez-
enaw Aenaenu Bi-Shoovchaw Li-
Zion Bi-rachamim." "And let
our eyes behold thy return in
mercy to Zion"
Fellow Jews! If you have the
faculty of vision and intelligence,
don't wait to be approached for
membership! We have no organ-
ized unit for membership pur-
poses! Think Zionist- Join!!!
Don't Delay!!! Today!'.!

VOLUME 12NUMBER 23
Flag Day
Flag Dr,y takes on a particularly pointed meaning in times
like these. In the face of foreign-inspired attacks on demo-
cracy, it reminds us,that all Americans of every creed must
help preserve our traditional American unity by rallying
around the "flag of our Union forever." The Stars and
Stripesbanner of liberty, democracy and justiceis the one
symbol we all have iin common, whether we be Protestant,
Catholic or Jew,whether we be of English, French, Polish,
Irish or Italian descent.
On another page we publish an appeal to promote greater
love for our flag, sponsored by the Jewish War Veterans of
the United States. It says in part:"America wants no blood
purges, no murder cults, no wholesale destruction of race and
religion, Swastika or Hammer and Sickle. both alike are
i blight and a menace to/America. Let's stick to Old Glory!"
Like all veterans' organizations, the Jewish War Veterans
exemplify the contributions'to the progress of this country by
the many groups that make up America. Like other American
groups, the Jews of our country have a proud record of service,
not only in the cultural and industrial growth of America, but
also in the wartime history of the United States in every con-
flict since the days of 1776.
There are some who feel that the war "to make the world
safe for democracy 'was a tragic failure, in view of what has
happened in Europe since the Armistice. They do not realize,
perhaps, that the fight is still going on.not with planes and
grenades, but with other and more subtle weapons. Our own
democracy is being threatened by foreign philosophies striving
to create /notion and unrest in America. The stupidities of
the Nazi Bund take on a sinister ring when they are mouthed
by misguided native 100-percenters. Against them we have
mapy weapons, and of these the most potenH is the sense ot
unity in American people, the kind of unity we showed in 1917.
No agitator can succeed here so long as Amencans.-Jews,
Catholics, and Protestants-can join in the rallying call lor
intelligent patriotism.
These are good things to remember on Flag Day.

TIDBITS FROM EVERYWHERE
(BY PHINEAS J. BIRON)
ABROADCASTS
We're happy to report that the Germans suffer a lot from
big headaches nowadays. They're exporting all their as-
pirin tablets to foreign countries as the chief item on their
famous barter deals.....\n interesting bit of news is that
the Germans are now engaged in training many thousands of
war dogs, who are expected to help the Red Cross in rescuing
wounded soldiers in the anticipated European conflagaration.
. Former Austrian Chancellor Schuschnigg, still under
protective arrest in a Xa/.i stronghold, has now been reduced
to such a mental state that his chief occupation is playing with
dolls. Yet the Nazis boast of their humanity in not having
had him killed. Don't think that the British let Hitler get
away with canceling Austria's debt to England or even drop-
ping interest pay.....nts. as he tried to do. They have been
collecting everything due them, having threatened that unless
regular interest payments were made they would seize Ger-
maiiv s trade balance in England......

Brother President Pallot and

Brother Dr. Frank Coret made
a detailed report concerning the
meeting at Tampa Lodge, which
was recently visited by him as
President of the State Federa-
tion of B'nai B'rith Lodges. The
committee making the trip con-
sisted of Brothers Rabbi Kaplan,
Stanley Myers and Abe Arono-
vitz. The purpose of the meet-
ing was an appeal for funds in
connection with State A. D. work.
Rabbi Kaplan's speech at Tampa
was a summary of conditions of
the Jew in America and in Flor-
ida, particularly. Brother Aro,n-
ovitz. State Chairman of the A.
D. Committee, stressed the im-
portance of the work and the
necessity of financial support to
insure its continuous effective-
ness. Brother Coret emphasized
the idea of insurance for the pro-
tection of American Jews in the
future. Brother Myers made an
inspiring talk which rang with
sincerity in its appeal which
touched the receptive hearts of
our good Tampa Brothers.

Federation appeal to Tampa
Lodgethe sum of $1,000.00,
underwritten by Tampa Lodge'
for A. D. activities! Congratula-

Ix>dges throughout Florida should;
be inspired by this expression of:
cooperation and support. It will
unquestionably serve as a shin-j
ing example of wisdom and fore-(
sight which will impel other
Lodges to the same action
---------B---------
Sholem Lodge expresses its
appreciation and confidence in
the true spirit of brotherhood ex-
emplified by Brothers Sam Blank
and Ben Bronston on their recent
speedy trip to New York to pre-
sent plans for the salvation of
our Brothers in distress, the Jew-
ish refugees aboard the German
vesselwith whose plight most
everyone is now familiar. Ac-
cording to Brother Harry Simon-
hoff's A. D. report, these two
good Brothers awakened in our
National Councils of Jewish lea-
dership a realization of the fact
that we down here in Florida are
not unaware of the problems of
the Jew.
-B-
Brother Harry Schaffer, Past
National Commander of the Jew-
ish War Veterans of the United
States, was the guest speaker at
the meeting Tuesday night.
Brother Schaffer's inspiring talk,
sounded as a keynote the import-
ance of membership in strength-
ening the work and activities of
B'nai B'rith. In addition to the
ideals of benevolence, good will
between Jew and Gentile patriot-
ism. Brother Schaffer emphasized
the importance of combating an-
ti-semitic forces in this country.
---------B---------
The membership drive is reviv-
ing itself through further inspir-
ation on the part of Bro. Chair-
man Bandler and his committee.
It was pleasing, indeed, to wit-
ness the cooperation of the many
Brothers present Tuesday night
in their willingness to go out
and work on this drive. A card
index system is being used and
with a survey of the whole Great-
er Miami area, the membership
in Sholem Lodge should more
than double in size.
The following new committees
were appointed:
A meetings committee, com-
posed of Brother Louis Heiman

Furman and Fred Shochet.
A building committee, compos-
ed of Brother Ben Bronston as

Best crack of the week is the
following. Former Justice

Pavilion with his mother, Susan
Brandeis, stopped in front of the j
display showing the building of j
a colony in one day, dramatized;
by an electric device which flash-:

New Ylork World's Fair where
he was greeted by Fair officials

the mountains three times a day.

PHI BETA DELTA WINS
SCHOLARSHIP CUP AGAIN
Recent results of the scholar-
ship standings released from the
office of H. J. Chandler, regis-
trar, at the University of Florida,
for the past semester show that
Phi Beta Delta, Jewish fraternity
on the campus, has won the cup
for the sixth consecutive semes-
ter with an all-time high aver-
age for fraternities of 1.7. By
capturing the scholarship cham-
pionship again, Phi Beta Delta
now has two legs on the new cup
and needs only one more leg to
retire their second scholarship
cup. This makes a total of five
and one-half full years that Phi
Beta Delta has won this honor.
In second place with an aver-
age of 1.3 was Chi Phi, which
was in third place last semester.
Tau Epsilon Phi dropped from
amongst the leaders the past
semester to eighth position with
an average of 1.0, which was be-
low the general student body av-
erage.

A flag is a symbol. It may stand
for something good. Or it may mean
something wicked and destructive to
all mankind.
Old Glory waves over a land that
represents Freedom and Tolerance.
In vivid contrast to other lands
blighted by hate and despotism.
Americans have more right today
t ban ever to be proud of America. To
uphold ir in p.ce And if the dread
day comes, to fight for it in war.
To the youth of America we say:
Fight for your country in PEACE
by driving its enemies from you. Cherish
the tolerance, the good will, the free-
dom you now enjoy. It's your birthright
os on American.
A beast has no place in your
midst. Especially when he comes
cringing with blood stained hands
to hiss his song of hate. Nazi or
Fascist, he is an avowed enemy
of America. America does not want
him.
Shun the scoundrel who confuses
your thought by preaching hatred
and intolerance under another name.
He calls himself Communist. Call
him by his right name: An Enemy
of America. America does not want

America wants no blood purges,
no murder cults, no wholesale de-
struction of race and religion. Swas-

alike are a blight and a menace to
America.

NOTES
(BY HARRY SCHWARTZ)
HOME CAMP
The greatest project ever to
take place in the history of Mi-
ami Jewry is the Home Camp
conceived and inaugurated by
Mr. Maurice Grossman, our exe- i
cutive director. This Camp of-,
fers boys and girls between the
ages of 6 to 14 years an oppor-
tunity to experience some of
the outstanding camping activi-
ties while remaining at home.
The Camp will open on Mon-
day morning, July 3rd, at 9:30
and continue through August 21.
Sessions will start at 9:30 a. m., |
and will conclude at 4:30 p. m.
6 days a week, Monday through
Friday. Parents will bring their
children here and call for them.
A program of diversified activi-
ties will be given the children
under the guidance of Miss Dor- '
othy Lightman, camp directress, I
and a staff of counsellors. The |
children will be divided into
groups of 6. Each group will be
in charge of a counsellor. At
periodic intervals the children
will be taken to the beach or to
the Venetian pools in busesDe-
licious luncheons will be served
daily and milk and fruit punch
will be given at various intervals
throughout ths day.
Here are part of the activities
that will take place: Arts and

Hobbies, Jewish Folk Lore, Kam-
era Club, Ping Pong, Scrap Book,
Showers of Songs, Story Telling,
Swimming, Volley Ball, Circus,
Camp Fires, Hot Dog Roasts, Pa-
geant and Watermelon Festival.
Each child that joins will re-
ceive a medical examination upon
entrance into the camp. Thru
the courtesy of the WPA we have
secured an instructor in Arts
and Crafts and one in Story Tell-
ing and Music and Appreciation.
These instructors are trained
teachers and the children will
derive great benefit from them.
Playground equipment is now
being built for the "Y" consist-
ing of seesaws, stairway slide,
swings, sand box, trapeze, one-
bar aluminum ring, all steel hor-
izontal bar.
The tuition will be $3.00 per
week for children of non-mem-
bers, and $2.00 per week for chil-
dren of members. It is suggest-
ed that those interested join the
"Y" and take advantage of the
low rate. Enrollment is limited.

London, (WNS Palcor Agency) Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain told the House of Commons that if there should occur any dispute "among those concerned with the Mandate" over Palestine as to the validity of Great Britain's now policy, it would be submitted for a ruling to the International Court of Justice at The Hague. He declared th* the' Biitish Government is satisfied that its new policy for Paletsine conforms with its treaty obligations under the .League of Nations Mandate, and expressed confidence that the League's Permanent Mandates Commission would so find it. "If, however, any dispute should occur among those concerned with the Mandate, it would be submitted to the International Court of Justice at The Hague," he added. Tom Williams, Laborite, had asked for assurance that if the Mandates Commission should report the Chamberlain White Paper on Palestine inconsistent with the Mandate ove r Palestine granted to Great Britain by the League of Nations, the House of Commons would then be afforded an opportunity for further discussion of the White Paper and of the report of the Commission before the Council of the League is asked to consider it. The Prime Minister answered that he understood that in the course of the Mandates Commission's examination of the annual reports of the various mandated territories it would likely take the opportunity to discuss the White Paper. "If the Commission offers any comments, th se will be embodied in reports that will be submitted before the Council of the League of Nations next September," he said "Government will afford the. information required regarding the policy of the White Paper. Government are satisfied their policy is in conformity with their treaty obligations under the Mandate, and will explain thei r view to the Council." |we r reached final settlement W Itkere are still 3,700 Jews living I" the frontier "no-man's land.'

In view of the American Zionist Convention to be held June 24th through 28th, it is imperative that the Zionist District of Greater Miami secure a larger membership.

Surely, we have sufficient intelligence to judge/ the merits and the potency of worthwhile Jewish organizations without relying upon "Social Stimulants" for active affiliationWhat greater purpose for existence can one find in any organization than that profound ideal which is embodied in Zionism, and emphasized in the very essence of our faith "Vi-Sechezenaw Aenaenu Bi-Shoovchaw LiZion Bi-rachamim."

The talk will feature the "Apartment houses purchasing gas through one meter are obviously served more economically than a number of individual apartment meters. The Company saves on the elimination of frequent "turn ons" and "turn offs" and in one monthly meter reading and billing instead of multiple readings and billings. Our economies in serving this class of customers permits us to pass on a substantial saving to them. "The reduction in rates also offers a substantial saving to the year-round customers of the company, who are using mone than 25,000 cubic feet of gas per month" Mr. Littlefield explained further, "the Company has a large investment in its plant and distribution system, upon which taxes, interest and depreciation are accruing every month in the j year regardless of whether gas is being supplied to tourists or to permanent residents. The por-; tion of these carrying charges which must be included in a monthly bill is considerably less' for the year-round customer than! for the seasonal customer. We; are glad to pass this saving along to any customer who uses gas, the year-round, but, as the com-, pany has no way of knowing in j advance that a customer content-! "The reduction in rates offered to other classes of consumers was small in amount," said Mr. Littlefield, "as we have already reduced rates 34 percent for domestic customers and more than 50 percent for large commercial customers during the past seven years."

Thanks to the Brothers for making the trip. B Brother Dr. Frank Coret made a detailed report concerning the meeting at Tampa Lodge, which was recently visited by him as President of the State Federation of B'nai B'rith Lodges. The committee making the trip consisted of Brothers Rabbi Kaplan, Stanley Myers and Abe Aronovitz. The purpose of the meeting was an appeal for funds in connection with State A. D. work. Rabbi Kaplan's speech at Tampa was a summary of conditions of the Jew in America and in Florida, particularly. Brother Aro,novitz. State Chairman of the A. D. Committee, stressed the importance of the work and the necessity of financial support to insure its continuous effectiveness. Brother Coret emphasized the idea of insurance for the protection of American Jews in the future. Brother Myers made an inspiring talk which rang with sincerity in its appeal which touched the receptive hearts of our good Tampa Brothers. B And now the scoop of the monththe result of the State Federation appeal to Tampa Lodgethe sum of $1,000.00, underwritten by Tampa Lodge' for A. D. activities! Congratulations to you, Tampa Lodge! Alii Ix>dges throughout Florida should; be inspired by this expression of : cooperation and support. It will unquestionably serve as a shin-j ing example of wisdom and fore( sight which will impel other Lodges to the same action B Sholem Lodge expresses its appreciation and confidence in the true spirit of brotherhood exemplified by Brothers Sam Blank and Ben Bronston on their recent speedy trip to New York to present plans for the salvation of our Brothers in distress, the Jewish refugees aboard the German vesselwith whose plight most everyone is now familiar. According to Brother Harry Simonhoff's A. D. report, these two good Brothers awakened in our National Councils of Jewish leadership a realization of the fact that we down here in Florida are not unaware of the problems of the Jew. -BBrother Harry Schaffer, Past National Commander of the Jewish War Veterans of the United States, was the guest speaker at the meeting Tuesday night. Brother Schaffer's inspiring talk, sounded as a keynote the importance of membership in strengthening the work and activities of B'nai B'rith. In addition to the ideals of benevolence, good will between Jew and Gentile patriotism. Brother Schaffer emphasized the importance of combating anti-semitic forces in this country. B The membership drive is reviving itself through further inspiration on the part of Bro. Chairman Bandler and his committee. It was pleasing, indeed, to witness the cooperation of the many Brothers present Tuesday night in their willingness to go out and work on this drive. A card index system is being used and with a survey of the whole Greater Miami area, the membership in Sholem Lodge should more than double in size. The following new committees were appointed: A meetings committee, composed of Brother Louis Heiman as Chairman and Brothers Al Augustine, Harold Spaet, M. GFurman and Fred Shochet. A building committee, composed of Brother Ben Bronston as Chairman and Brothers R. R. Adler, Al Berkeley, Henry Hohouser, Leo Robinson, Marcie Lieberman and Nathan Adelman. if* Is the BEST.'

In the face of foreign-inspired attacks on democracy, it reminds us,that all Americans of every creed must help preserve our traditional American unity by rallying around the "flag of our Union forever." The Stars and Stripesbanner of liberty, democracy and justiceis the one symbol we all have iin common, whether we be Protestant, Catholic or Jew,whether we be of English, French, Polish, Irish or Italian descent. On another page we publish an appeal to promote greater love for our flag, sponsored by the Jewish War Veterans of the United States. It says in part:"America wants no blood purges, no murder cults, no wholesale destruction of race and religion, Swastika or Hammer and Sickle. both alike are i blight and a menace to/America. Let's stick to Old Glory!" Like all veterans' organizations, the Jewish War Veterans exemplify the contributions'to the progress of this country by the many groups that make up America. Like other American groups, the Jews of our country have a proud record of service, not only in the cultural and industrial growth of America, but also in the wartime history of the United States in every conflict since the days of 1776. There are some who feel that the war "to make the world safe for democracy 'was a tragic failure, in view of what has happened in Europe since the Armistice. They do not realize, perhaps, that the fight is still going on.not with planes and grenades, but with other and more subtle weapons. Our own democracy is being threatened by foreign philosophies striving to create /notion and unrest in America. The stupidities of the Nazi Bund take on a sinister ring when they are mouthed by misguided native 100-percenters. Against them w e have mapy weapons, and of these the most potenH is the sense ot unity in American people, the kind of unity we showed in 1917. No agitator can succeed here so long as Amencans.-Jews, Catholics, and Protestants-can join in the rallying call lor intelligent patriotism. These are good things to remember on Flag Day.

They're exporting all their aspirin tablets to foreign countries as the chief item on their famous barter deals \n interesting bit of news is that the Germans are now engaged in training many thousands of war dogs, who are expected to help the Red Cross in rescuing wounded soldiers in the anticipated European conflagaration. Former Austrian Chancellor Schuschnigg, still under protective arrest in a Xa/.i stronghold, has now been reduced to such a mental state that his chief occupation is playing with dolls. Yet the Nazis boast of their humanity in not having had him killed. Don't think that the British let Hitler get away with canceling Austria's debt to England or even dropping interest pay nts. as he tried to do.

Mr. Hamilton is not an anti-Semite, but his dislike for Roosevelt is so deep that he has more than once been indiscreet in his choice of bedfellows.
